Antonio Porcelli

Antonio Porcelli (1800–1870) was an Italian painter. He painted both landscape and figures in genre scenes. Some of the paintings have been described as of "historic or fantastic themes" including one titled Il nano misterioso nella spianata di Pietra Nera based on W. Scott story, Pinacoteca Civica of Ravena. He was inscribed in 1838 in the Congregazione dei Virtuosi al Pantheon. Other notes describe his as a painter of bambocciate.
